Men's Soccer Alumni Weekend Welcomes Back Final Four Teams of 1998, 1999

May 10, 2010

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Santa Clara University's
1998 and 1999 NCAA College Cup Final Four teams will return to the
SCU campus for an alumni match and banquet dinner on Saturday, May
15. The alumni are scheduled to play the current Broncos at Buck
Shaw Stadium at 11:15 a.m. which follows a spring exhibition match
with UC Santa Cruz at 9 a.m.

"It's a unique group of players. In the five times we have been
to the College Cup finals this is the only group to go
back-to-back," said Santa Clara men's soccer head coach Cameron Rast. "They
achieved so many great things on the field and went on to great
careers, not only within the game but in a number of different
areas professionally."

"For our guys to have a chance to interact with a lot of these
former players is such a great opportunity," said Rast. "Many are
leaders in their communities, have opened up their own businesses -
really talented and quality people. For our guys to connect with
them and get a sense of what they can go on to achieve is an
important part of the weekend."
